EyASoELrsT1c SERVICES.

One Of Mr. Claggett's rules is that the
ushers shall conduct no one to front seats
during the reading of the scriptures, prayer
or singing of solos Last Dight he kindly
suspended reading during the seating of an
elderly lady who needed front seat in order
to hear.
The silvery tones of Mr.. Birch's golden
cornet arrests and draws In many passers
by His solo singing is a very attractive
feature of these meetings. Last night he
sang "What of the Future My BrotherF'
Before beginning his sermon Mr.. c. impress
ed by startling incident the feet that such
meetings as these always seal the destiny Of
souls for hell as well as for heaven.
The speakers text was For there is 10
difference for all have sinned." There is no
truth more plainly taught than the necessity
Of a radical change in man before he can
serve God acceptably. All sinners are dead.
When man is dead he is dead. Neverthe-
less some sinners are worse than others.
Men grow worse by weakening their con-
sciences through repeated sinful acts. They
become worse by being surrounded by temp
tation; by the growth of their evil DISPOSE
tions. This growth goes on not only on
earth but in he'll; the pit is bottomless
While the filthy, profane. false and dissipated
are more offensive and foul than the strictly
moral. Yet all are alike dead to sin. An
act to be good before God must be done from
love to God, SO they that are ''in the flesh"
can not do any act that is good in Gods
sight An act to have good moral quality in
it must have the right motive backing it and
that motive must be the love of God. Men
do many things good in themselves to ease
their conscience; because they think their
good acts will save them; because they fear
hell; because of their love of appreciation;
of the praise Of their neighbors; under the
pressure of self-interest; from these motives
men pray, take care of widows and orphans,
build and help to build churches, contribute
to churches These motives may not be bad
but the only true motive Is the love of God
Though speak with the tongue of men and
of angels, though give all my goods to feed
the poor, though l give my body to be
burned and have not charity, it profiteth me
nothing" While there is no difference in
this that all are sinners alike, it is cheering
to know that there is no difference in the
invitation of Christ, it comes to all alike. At
the after meeting four persons confessed
Christ and number of others desired prayer
for themselves.

ADJUSTMENTS.
QUEENA..

QtEENA..
This very pleasing drama was presented by
the Clair Patee Company at the Garfield
Opera House last evening. This organization
was comparatively unknown to our citizens,
yet they seemed to regard the numerous re-
commentators OF this company by the press
throughout the state very favorably, and
good audience received them The company
is indeed deserving, being far above the
average, ard Edith Arnold in the title role Of
"Queenan displayed so marked and natural
ability that she was encored many times, and
In the third act, after very strong mad
scene, was called before the curtain The
little lady had made a very decided hit, and
received most emphatic recognition. 1t is not
often that Wichita audiences show such APP
probation and Miss Arnold can justly fell
proud of the reception she has received upon
her first appearance in our city. The lady is
young and has all the accomplishments which
make an actress popular, and we predict a
most promising future for her.
Willard Sinn,s, the comedian Of the COM
pany, also found enthusiastic friends; his
bright eccentricities and pleasing songs, in
the character of ]. Henry Wilkins, were
well received and encored. The support
throughout was well sustained.
Tonight will be presented, the best of all
modern dramas, Hazel Kirk, and it is safe to
say that with this company the play win be
well cast
MUSEUM
Messrs. Ennis & Young again astonished
their patrons with something new and last
night the character Marrionette came on and
brought down the house. Unfortunately
Miss Mary Smith was taken suddenly i'll but
the management found lady in their employ
to replace her and the play passed off in
highly creditable manner. ''All that glitters
is not gold' wins the same applause as its
predecessors.
CRAWFORDS.

There is an opportunity for large number

with but little Inconvenience to Themselves.
The great need at present is room for the
hundreds of new people coming in. Many

ty to secure living places. We suggest that
there are many people in the town who have
more room in their homes than they particu-
larly desire, at least room which they could
Spare. They would be doing a good thing
to put a notice in Getty papers Offering to
rent such room as they could spare. There

willing to pay any reasonable price for quar-
tiers. A word to the wise, etc.

BUSINESS PALACES.
Magnificent Buildings to be Erected.

Before the frosts OF next winter the peo-
pie Of Wichita will ali be living in one of
the most beautiful and most attractive cities
to be found anywhere On this continent.
Shaded avenues, grass and foliage, and de-
lightful drives are already ours. Attractive
homes Of almost every known style and COM
bination of architectural beauty are going
up daily. 1t is only in the style and charac-
ter of our business houses that Wichita In
the past hos been criticised, and justly. But
wait for the results Of the present summer.
The EAGLE, since the close Of last seasons
building, has frequently alluded to the splen-
did improvements which would mark the
growth of Wichita in 1887, giving, on two or
three occasions, names, locations and
amounts, yet almost daily we hear and note
Others and others until the sum
to be expended runs up into mil
lions upon millions Of dollars. So
as we said in the start, Wichita, by another
year, will be the nost nagnifcently attrac-
tive city of her age to be found ON this CONT
nent. Yesterday morning reference was
made to the imposing five or six story edlfice
to be built on the Kohn corner. Right across
the street the citizens bank building will be
made five lofty stories above the basement
which is almost story. Last night one OF
our city's heaviest capitalists addressed US in
these words: ''Of course it Is unexpected and
l don't desire that you should say anything
about it, because / want to secure little
more ground space, but have fully made up
my mind and will erect a building in Which,
ia this summer which will eclipse any busl-
ness building ever erected in the state of
Kansas. 1t viii be close up to the center of
business, will be the full depth Of the lots,
one hundred and fifty foot front and five sto
ries high, heated by. steam, provided with
elevators and al the modern conrepiencas."
This man seldom talks and never brags, but
his check Is good for quarter of a million
